Neighbours star Stefan Dennis has been forced to cancel a proposed trip to the UK as fires continue to rage in Australia. The actor - best known for playing ruthless businessman Paul Robinson in the Five soap - was due to carry out publicity work in Britain towards the end of February. But bush fires are reportedly close to his home in the Victoria region of Australia - where 181 people have already confirmed to have died following arson attacks in the area. That, coupled with the fact that a heat wave and more blazes have been predicted for next week, have prompted the 50-year-old to rethink his plans. His decision is quite understandable, particularly as he has a young family to consider. He and wife Gail have three children - boys Cameron and Declan, and baby daughter Darci. Stefan says he hopes to rearrange his trip. Until then, UK-based Neighbours fans will have to watch him on their favourite soap instead, which airs weekdays on Five at 1.30pm and 5.30pm.
